Note: This story has a lot of events in it related to the main comics, it's also in three phases and keep your eyes peeled for unexpected twists and turns.

Prologue

Year 3234

Green received letters from Uma Arachnis days after the events of Colonial Ark, the letters had told him that she feared soon she'd die from radiation poisoning because she was in Robotropolis and exposed to high levels of radiation along with former warlord Kodos Lion. She had informed Green that she laid a clutch of eggs, and that should she fail in her mission to keep the Sword of Acorn safe. That her children would take over for her, Green was having a hard time with this sad news because now he was starting to experience the emotional loss of Shadow.

However the loss of Shadow would be among the least of anyone's concerns in weeks to come, for far away on the edge of the solar system an ancient enemy of the human race was on its way to Mobius.

The bridge of an alien spaceship, located at the edge of the solar system

"Your kind call us many things, demons, monsters, zealot warriors...because we obey the sacred laws of our people the Xorda." a Xorda said to a captured Overlander warrior, the warrior was in a prison pod that was filled with air, the Xorda was cleansing himself in some kind of liquid that was like soap to his people. "Taking the life of a single Xorda Emissary of peace, shall be paid in the blood of over seven-trillion of whatever race is responsible for taking the life of a Xorda Emissary." the Xorda said as it swam towards the prisoner.

The inside of Xorda ships were filled with water, because their people needed water in order to survive. Unlike most races they preferred to swim, the Xorda in general looked like octopi mixed with jellyfish and had attributes like them. They had between twenty and thirty pink tentacles connected to a huge, purple "brain-sphere" with three gill-tubes on each side, two long fin-like flaps spanning across the membrane. A single, yellow eye is located between the two halves they also have psychic powers. Most of them could only use their psychic powers for telepathy, but others such as the spaceship captains could use their minds to lift up objects. The Xorda ship captain was using his psychic powers to lift up a giant rectangle block made from an unknown material, the block was in the prison pod the Overlander was in.

The prisoner was chained down, and his head was kept locked in place by two objects that came from the walls of his pod. "How can you still hold a grudge for our people after all those years...why have you bothered keeping me alive beast?" the Overlander warrior asked.

"You call me beast, when your kind are the real monsters. You and your ship of warriors attacked a planet under our protection, had we failed to terminate the threat you posed. An entire world would've fallen, and you claim your journey was to peacefully seek a new home, but yet you go to the lengths of causing genocide for a new home. We aren't the beasts here, you and your filthy kind are." the Xorda captain shouted into the mind of the Overlander warrior, using his psychic powers the Xorda assaulted the mind of the Overlander warrior with images and feelings of all the pain he and his fellow warriors caused the inhabitants of the planet they invaded about a year ago.

The Overlander was overwhelmed by this, he barely uttered. "But...why am I still alive..." the Overlander warrior asked, while in psychological pain.

The Xorda glared at him, as he said. "So you can behold the mud sphere you came from." the Xorda captain said, as he used his psychic powers to bring up the ships monitors, using maximum zoom capacity the monitor showed Mobius.

"Mobius..." the Overlander warrior said.

"We felt as leader of the Overlander warriors, you deserved one final look at your slime ball home before we returned to It." the Xorda captain said.

"You'll never conquer Mobius...the armies of our world are stronger than the last time you came!" the Overlander warrior shouted.

"No we won't conquer it...we will shatter it into dust!" the Xorda captain shouted into the mind of the Overlander warrior, he then looked at the rectangle block and used his mind to send it down to crush the head of the Overlander warrior.

The blood of the Overlander warrior filled the prison pod as all blood was forced out of his body, by the machines in his pod. The prison pod then opened up and released the blood into the ship, all the Xorda who inhaled the blood mixed with water into their bodies spent many long hours with their eyes closed. Before the captain gave word to his crew "enjoy the scent of blood my brethren, for we shall not partake in anymore. Once we reach Mobius we shall give the Mobians we've heard of a choice, and then to show our power we'll send a single drone ship out to level one of their cities. After that we shall launch the Quantum Dial, and turn them to dust." the Xorda captain ordered as his ship was getting closer to Mobius, they noticed a ship belonging to another alien race but didn't bother with them at all.

Back on planet Mobius, Green, Nicolas and Sprocket the Chao were called to Central City for an important event, an event for their fallen friend Shadow. As for Sonic and the Freedom Fighters, they were busy freeing the Robians of Robotropolis, and soon they have to save the Overlanders that Neo Dr. Eggman tricked into living in Robotropolis.

Phase 1

Adventure 1

Shadow's Memorial

Green, Nicolas and Sprocket arrived in Central City after an airplane ride took them to the city, the event that was happening today was very emotional. Green and his friends met up with the Thorndyke family, Rouge and Topaz. As well as Ella and Mr. Tanaka, Green was wearing a black cloak to keep his face hidden, he didn't feel like talking much at all.

There was a long moment of silence until the President of the United Federation arrived, when he arrived the press had a lot of questions for him as usual but his body guards kept them away. He stood tall and silent as he walked to make his speech, "my fellow people of Mobius, we have gathered here today in loving memory of our fallen hero Shadow the Hedgehog." when he said this everyone went silent.

"When we first learned of the existence of Shadow the Hedgehog, he framed Sonic for crimes because Dr. Eggman was using Shadow. But...in spite of what Shadow did, he proved himself a true hero when he gave his life to save us all from Colonial ARK. As you all know the ARK almost destroyed our world, but thanks to the heroics of Super Sonic and Super Shadow the world was saved. We gather here today for the Shadow the Hedgehog Memorial Statue of our fallen hero." Mr. President said as he and a few others pulled away a giant clothe, it revealed a twenty foot statue of Shadow the Hedgehog.

"Our special guest for the unveiling of this memorial is Shadow's close friend, Green the Hedgehog. Who knew Shadow long ago, as Nazo the Hedgehog, Green can you come up here son?" Mr. President said as he asked Green to come up.

Green slowly walked up, he made his speech as short as possible "thank you Mr. President..." he said to the President of the United Federation. "Shadow was a very important friend of mine...and it saddens me to lose him and to see so much wasted on the creation of weapons, which is why behind the memorial for our friend Shadow. We shall make the Maria Robotnik Memorial Hospital, dedicated to the pursuit of looking for cures to any and all illnesses. Especially N.I.D.S, I wish that Prof. Gerald could see how much the United Federation has changed over the years for the better...and I wish my friends Maria and Shadow could be here today...I miss you guys." Green said as he removed his hood, and it revealed that he changed his quill/hair style. It looked exactly like Shadow's, but in place of red stripes he dyed black stripes into his quills. "I shall wear my quills in the style of my friend, in order to remember him...Shadow...I wish we had more time." Green said as he began to cry silently before he left.

Green didn't spend much time in Central City after that, he went back to Westside Island and spent days there and kept getting saddening letters. Uma Arachnis had died from radiation poisoning, Nate Morgan was Robotized along with a couple other Overlanders and they were frozen like statues, Heavy and Bomb were reprogrammed by Neo Dr. Eggman and got destroyed by Sonic when they attacked him. Green was having it hard with this news, he felt very withdrawn from everybody including Nicolas.

Green had spent a week away from everyone and was moaning Shadow's passing, he had a hard time trying to stay happy with Shadow's loss on his mind. He had spent the week trying to tell himself that Shadow could be alright or that Shadow was in a better place, but it didn't help him at all, he went to Scrap Brain Zone on South Island after a week had passed by. And Rouge the Bat found him, "hey there handsome how are you doing?" she asked Green playfully.

"Not now Rouge..." Green said.

"You kind of acting like Shadow eh?" she asked in a teasing manner, but Green turned and faced Rouge and his eyes were covered in tears.

"What would you know?!" he shouted.

"Relax...I was just teasing." she said.

Green all of a sudden snapped, he then shouted out at Rouge. "Right like you always do Rouge! You don't understand what I'm going through...I don't know about you but I've lost tons of friends and lots of family over the ages..." Green said as he kept crying, "...you know very well that I'm really Nazo the Hedgehog...you've heard that I've been alive for a long time." he said.

"Yeah I know...but...could you explain to me why you're like this? I've never seen you this beaten up before." Rouge said, she wanted to know more on what was going on.

"...well Rouge...it's because...being Nazo, I've had so many life experiences. I've had practically every job a person on Mobius could have, and it's been my burden too bear with knowing that I'll continue to live while everyone else will age away. I've lost so many friends over my long life as Nazo...and Shadow was one of the last people living from my past life and he could've lived forever with me...until...he died saving us...I don't know if you've lost anyone special or close to you in your life...but it's never easy to bare." Green explained while he was still crying a little.

Rouge was silent for a while, but after she took a moment to absorb everything she was told. She calmly said to her fellow agent and friend. "...I've never had anyone close to me die before, but I have lost fellow agents in the field before...and...my adopted dad doesn't want to see me again...I know all too well what this emotional stuff is like, it hits you like a train and brakes you into pieces...but the important thing is that you get as many of those pieces that you can, and put yourself back together." Rouge said as she and Green both sat down, they sat at the place where Green let Dr. Oliver Eggman go so many years ago, they let their legs hang over the edge.

"...true...but you can never find all the pieces..." Green said as he wiped away a tear.

"...we may not be able to get every single piece back, but one of the good ways to keep moving on is to keep good memories of the time spent with those you lost. And to keep pushing on for their sake, sometimes you just need some alone time but remember to talk about how you feel with someone you can trust and a counselor." Rouge said to Green as she put a hand on his right shoulder.

"...I never took you for the kind of person to give advice Rouge..." Green said as he stopped crying, and wiped away his tears.

Rouge smiled to Green. "I'm full of surprises Green." Rouge said.

Green was starting to feel better, but then he remembered he needed to tell Rouge something. "Oh Rouge...there's something very important I have to tell you." Green said.

"What is it?" she asked.

"...through adoption...we're cousins." Green said.

"What?" Rouge said in a bit of disbelief.

"Well you see Rouge, Nicolette Weasel many years ago adopted Green. I have the complete records here." Nicolas said as he gave Rouge his handheld form, he turned into his holo-lynx form when he did this.

"...wh...how...you mean these past couple years I've been working with my cousin!?" Rouge said with a surprised look on her face.

"I wanted you to get too know me as just a person...before you got to know me as a cousin." Green explained.

"...I think I'll need a moment to process this..." Rouge said as she read through all the records that Nicolas gave to her, it took a few hours but she just looked at Green after a while and said, "...I'm glad to have family again." she said as she gave Green a big hug.

"As am I, Rouge...as am I..." he said.

"I mean, it's cool to have a cousin working alongside me" Rouge said as she suddenly changed her behavior, to try and act like her sassy self.

Green smiled, he was glad to know Rouge took the news well. "It is at that Rouge, how about we go and help our friends out there?" Green asked Rouge.

"I'm game if you are, by the way is this Scrap Brain Zone?" Rouge asked Green.

"Yup...the first base that Dr. Oliver Eggman built and began his evil schemes, at least the first one that we single handedly broke into." Green said with a grin.

"I'm glad to still be by your side." Nicolas said.

"You know, someday we need to get you shoes and gloves" Green said to Nicolas.

"One day, but we need to focus on learning more about those spaceships we detected from the ARK." Nicolas said.

"Oh snap...I forgot all about them, did you check on any records at all regarding those ships?" Green asked Nicolas.

"Yes...and they aren't exactly like any we've seen before, and there's no records on them anywhere." Nicolas explained.

"What are you guys talking about?" Rouge asked.

"When we were on the ARK, we got footage from the long range telescopes of some kind of alien ships within the solar system. I have a feeling they might be Xorda related." Green explained.

"Xorda?" Rouge said.

"They're an advance alien race, humans have known about them for thousands of years now but didn't have any reason to worry about them. Because they left Mobius alone after their first attack." Nicolas explained.

"Well it sounds like they might be coming back." Rouge said.

"Maybe...I need to go and check on the status of the Overlanders who moved out of Robotropolis." Green said.

"That's good, because Princess Sally and the President of the United States could use your help." Rouge said.

"Well Green?" Nicolas said.

"...I say we do it to it, it's time we get back into action." Green said as he led Rouge to the Nimbus, they rode the biplane all the way to Station Square.

Quite a series of events have happened, and now after a week Green is back in action and with a new quill/hair style. Wait and see what's in store, as the Xorda make their return to Mobius in chapters too come.
